We believe demonstration is one of the most powerful ways to encourage change.
People do not necessarily need another lecture telling them how they should manage their land. They need opportunities to see ideas working. Raízes da Montanha gives us the opportunity to develop such a place.
We do not intend to say: "We have all the answers." We would rather say: "This is what we are trying. This is what has worked. This is what has failed. Come and see for yourself."
A demonstration farm should therefore demonstrate learning, not perfection.
